THE THIRTEENTH. SESSION.

The Thirteenth Session of the Nevada
Legislature. closed its. session by Con-
stitutional limitation on Thursday night,
and it is well that there is Constitu-
tional limitation, otherwise the members
with their accustomed unanimity would
probably have passed q resolution
adopting the sentiment of the historical
dispatch of General Grant "to fight it
out on this line if it takes all Summer.
We heartily concur in the views of the
Silxer State on the subject of the Ne
vada Legislature as expressed in an edi-
turial, Published in yeste rday's issue,
from which, we quote:
cit is. simply ridiculous for Nevada,
with its few thousand inhabitants, to
continue to ape the customs Of the more
populous States in legislature matters.
Until the Constitution is amended, there
must be biennial sessions of the Legis-
lature, but while the Constitution WISE
~ limits the length of each session to
sixty days.. it does not require the men,
hers to remain in session more than q
day if the. necessary business can be
transacted, in that time; neither is there
anything in the Constitution to prevent
a reduction of the number of members
to thirty or less. There is no good rea-
son for keeping the representation as
high as it is, and giving each one thou
Sand Inhabitants, including Piutes and
Cinnamon. a representative. A Senate
composed of ten and an Assembly of
twenty members would be amply suffi-
cient for Nevada. Then the response
hility for bad Legislation or extravaganza
would have to be assumed by a few, the
standard for membership would be
raised, and better laws. enacted at MUCH
less cost to the taxpayers

There was an oh preacher once who
told some boys Of the Bible lesson he
was going to read il the morning. The
boys found the place and carefully glued
together the connecting pages. Next
morning the old preacher read at the
bottom of the page, "When Noah was
one hundred and twenty years old he
took unto himself q wife, who was
then turning the page, "140 cubits long,
40 cubits wide, built of gopher wood,
and covered it with pitch inside and
out" He was naturally puzzled at
this. He read it again, verified it, and
then said: "My friends, this is the first
time I have met this in my Bible, but I
accept it as evidence of the assertion
that we are fearfully and wonderfully
made"

1--WE ARE STARVING"
A Tale OF Suffering nuteiy Told by
the international Code
Of signals.
tRaltimorc Sum


Captain Trenery, the commander of
the British steamship Baltimore, from
Liverpool, to Patterson, Ramsey & Co.,
brings q sad tale of those "who go
down to the sea in ships. A noble
ship at sea. and within few days sail
of her port of destination, was sighted
with captain, officers, and crew starving
on board. "Water, water everywhere,
and not a drop to drink, was truly ex-
emplified in this case.
On the morning OF February 28th,
when the Baltimore was four hundred
miles west of Fastnet, a British ship
was reported flying signals of distress.
Captain Trenery bore down on her at
good speed, and when close by the sig
nal halliards from the stranger mutely
told q tale Of want. ''We are starving,
said the flags as they tapped in the
gale that blew across the Atlantic that
morning. The vessel proved to be the
British ship Baron Blantyre, Captain
Burns, from the warm land OF
Java, with a valuable cargo OF
sugar, bound to Greenock, Scot
land, TO which port she belonged.
Captain Trenery signalled the Blan-
tyre to send boat off for provisions.
Again the signals spoke and said it was
impossible. 1t needed no further in
formation 10 urge Captain Trenery TO
do the duty OF humanitarian. 1t was
blowing Q gale and heavy sea was
dsshing against the Baltimore. but the

Drummers' Decision.
To the Editor of tie Dispatch :.


in answer to or" in your issue of
the 18th instant He says, "Do not
our own merchants (meaning Virginia)
pay high tax ? Are we to feed and
build up the trade of other States by
cutting the props from under our own
merchants ?" dc.
ar" may have forgotten the mer-
chants who send out drummers pay a
high tax in their own State. 1t seems
"R." does not send his drummer out
side of the State, or he and his drum
mer sits idle waiting for the. CONNER
cial traveller from another State TO
make sales and divide profits with them
to Keep props up.
The writer is a resident of Virginia,
and when he decided TO travel to sell
goods was forced to get license in
the name of the house ne represent
ed, for the reason he would have to pay
a tax on sales then the State would
have two tax assessments on one stock
of goods ii addition to tax in the State
where they came from, thereby making
our citizens pay three tax-charges.
Now our citizens, by the United States
Courts decision, only pay the legiti-
mate merchants tax III every State.
Very respectfully, A. Il.

WEDNESDAY. MARCH 16, 1887.
The Drummers' Decision.

We would say to our good friends
who have written to us on the subject
First, that the tax on the license OF
asample merchant selling goods III this
Commonwealth was two hundred dol
lars year ms long ago as 1852, rs may
be seen by reference 20 the Code OF
1860.
Secondly, that there is no contention
as TO the power of Congress to regulate
commerce between the States The
contention is that it is not regulating
commerce between the States, but
ugurpation of power, for the United
States Supreme Court to forbid a State
To levy taxes on the licenses of persons
from other States. The language
of the Federal Constitution is that
"the Congress shall have power to
regulate commerce withforeign nations
and among tho several States" Con-
gress at its very last session refused, or
il you choose neglected, to pass bill
prohibiting the several States from
taxing drummers, although such a bill
was reported from the proper commit
tee; and yet the Supreme Court has
made such law itself, holding Of
course that the provision quoted ope-
rates proprio vigore.
It's clear that if for the reason given
Virginia has no right to tax drummer
from New York or Baltimore forselling
goods in this State, she has no right
to tax a drummer from England or
Canada for selling goods in this State,
seeing that the power to regulate com
merce with foreign nations is given to
Congress in the very same sentence in
which the power to regulate commerce
among the several States is given to
Congress. So the question in dispute
really is whether the taxing OF drum
rer's license is regulating COM
merce within the intendment of the
Federal Constitution.
Our Virginia drummers must make
up in other States what they lose in
their own. All the States are now
open to them as well as to their COM
petitors from Baltimore and other
cities. Let them see to it that they
maintain the reputation of the Old
Dominion. Besides, our merchants
must cause their rights to be respected,
for. as we tried to show the other day,
surely q Virginia merchant has as
much right TO bring goods into Vir-
ginia from another State as Balti-
more drummer, and if so, the former
is as truly engaged in interstate COM
merce as the latter; and if the State
"cannot impose taxes" upon pro-
perty imported and not yet become
part of the common mass, the home
merchant must have the same right to
sell without license as the foreign
drummer for if goods in the
hands of the latter have mot yet be-
come part of tho common mass,
goods in the hands OF the former must
be in the same condition.

TWO BROTHERS SHOT DEAD.
An Array which Ended I'm the Shoot
fur Of Two italians.

A Scranton special says: Atragedy
occurred on the outskirts OF Dunmore,
about two miles from Scranton, late last
night. and was followed by scene Of
terror among the residents OF that neigh
borhood. James Barrett, who had been
drinking during the day, lives in a
bouso a short distance from q rickety
shanty occupied by Italian laborers.
Among the latter were two brothers
named Giorgi and Giuseppe AIurrell.
Shortly after 10 O'Clock Giorgi Murrcll.
the Younger Of the brothers, went
across the street TO Barett's house.
At that time Barrett held a babo
on his knee, and there were also in
the house with him his wife, his
mother-in-law, a girl named Collins,
and seven children. Murrell acted
with unpleasant familiarity toward the
GIRL Collins, who is relative OF Bar
rett's. and tho latter resented IL and or
dered the Italian out OF his house.
Murrell refused 30 80, and Barrett got
up 10 put him oslt. As the Italian was
/ eing elected he drew knife and made
vicious lunge in the direction OF Bar
rett's heart. Barrett war led of tho
blow with his left arm, and in doing
so received severe cut in the heshy
part of the arm. Maddened by the
pain he seized double-barrelled gun,
and, as the Italian was retreating, shot
him down in his tracks. The other
Murrell brother, who had been attract
ed by the quarrel, ran III tho direction
of the Barrett residence, carrying u
miners lamp with him. As he APP
preached near the door Barrett took
aim at him also and shot him dead. \
scene of great excitement and terror
ensued as the story of the killing spread
through the settlement.
After midnight Coroner Burnett ar
rived upon the scene and made a hur-
RED inspection OF the bodies. He AS
ceItained that Giuseppe Murrell had
been killed by charge of buckshot,
which lodged in his throat and chest,
severing the iugular vein and causing
instant death. Giorgi Murrell had
been shot in the back of the neck and
presented shocking sight The
bodies of the murdered brothers were
conveyed to the Italian quarters and
James Barrett was brought to the
Scranton lookup early this morning.
He claims to have acted in sclf-defence,
and says that the Italians made muir
derous attack upon him. Barrett IL
thirty-fve years of age.
Mrs. Barrett stated that the Italians
fred several times before her husband
fired the first shot.
